Two Roads was named the top Firm of the Future in Intuit Inc.’s nationwide search for accounting firms that use forward-thinking technologies to ensure their long-term success and reshape the way they meet the needs of their small business clients.

The search for the Firm of the Future contest received an overwhelming number of entries, showcasing the depth and progress of future-ready firms across the United States.

“Two Roads exemplifies what it takes to be the winner in our search for the top Firms of the Future in the United States,” said Jim McGinnis, vice president, Intuit Small Business Group, Accountant Segment. “Their laser-sharp focus on becoming a trusted advisor to their small business clients is evident. Their success also is inspiring for other firms that want to leave compliance behind and embrace online technologies that help deliver value-added services to their clients. We salute their forward-thinking model and ideal business days.”

The contest criteria, developed in collaboration with Darren Root, CEO of Rootworks, and author of The Intentional Accountant, was designed to celebrate those that have embraced online technologies and new methods that help firms be more efficient and save time in order to live the life they want to live.

Participants submitted videos that expressed why they deserved to be recognized as a Firm of the Future, including highlighting the firm’s vision, leadership style, brand, and how they’ve built a firm to capture ideal workdays.

A panel of qualified judges, including Jim McGinnis, Darren Root and Intuit Accountant Segment senior leaders, selected the top 20 Firms of the Future who best embody the attributes of Firms of the Future. Originality and creativity of a participant’s video was also considered.

A representative from each Firm of the Future received an all-expense paid trip to Intuit’s second annual QuickBooks Connect event in San Jose, Calif., where they were connected to, educated and inspired by a compelling speaker lineup with thousands of business owners, entrepreneurs, accountants and developers in attendance.

“We are honored to be recognized by Intuit as the top Firm of the Future,” said Two Roads’ President, Chad Ridner. “Taking advantage of online technologies has helped us evolve as a firm and presented new ways for us to meet the needs of our clients. We are humbled to have made the list alongside so many progressive, next-generation firms.”
